Spelt Oat Scones

Love the shape!

These are super easy to make. My little guy and I make them on Saturday afternoons while Baby naps. We have them for breakfast on Sunday mornings before heading to the pool. I love that we share this time together. He likes to press the Thermomix buttons and to spread out the dough into a giant circle and then cut into triangles. We sometimes use honey as the sweetener. Today we used Sucanat. We use whatever milk we have lots of in the fridge. I like that you can easily adapt the recipe to fit allergic needs: coconut oil instead of butter and coconut milk instead of dairy. No matter which way we make them, a little sprinkle of sugar on top is always nice. For original recipe, go to Tebasiles Kitchen.
